Pet care experience

Experienced Veterinary Professional

Hello, my name is Stephanie. With a diverse background in animal care, I have experience working with a wide range of species, from small animals to large and exotic creatures. Growing up surrounded by both large and small dogs, I developed a deep passion for animal welfare, which led me to shadow veterinarians and volunteer at my local animal shelter. I hold a degree in Animal Sciences from Purdue University and am currently pursuing a Veterinary Nursing degree from the same institution. In addition to my full-time role as a veterinary professional, I also offer pet sitting services. At home, I share my life with three cats and a rescued Labrador. Please feel free to reach out for further information or inquiries. I’d be happy to connect!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

For my pet sitting services, I adapt my care approach to meet the specific needs of each client and their pets. I offer in-home care, where I ensure the pet’s environment is familiar and comforting. This may include administering medications, providing meals, taking pets on walks, or engaging them in stimulating activities. I also ensure that pets feel emotionally supported through companionship and interaction, keeping their routines as consistent as possible while their owners are away. Communication with clients is key, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep them informed about their pet’s well-being. Whether in my home or my client’s home, my focus is always on creating a safe, caring, and stress-free environment for the animals under my care.

Stephanie took care of my pup for the weekend on short notice when our go-to sitter was booked. She took great care of our pup and he was happy and healthy when we got back home.

Stephanie was so helpful taking care of our dog. Luna can be wild but Stephanie was patient and they got along great. She was dependable and on time, even sent us a few pics of her during walks. Thanks!

Stephanie was wonderful. It was our first time using rover and we were nervous but Stephanie made it easy. She provided pictures and updates, responded really quickly and followed our instructions. She even took her on walks! Really recommend using Stephanie to babysit your fur animals!

Schedule

Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, both personally and professionally. As a veterinary professional, I prioritize the health and well-being of animals in my care, ensuring they receive the appropriate medical attention, nutrition, and enrichment. On a personal level, my three cats require daily attention, including feeding, grooming, and playtime, to maintain their happiness and health. When it comes to my pet sitting services, I schedule visits and care routines based on each pet’s needs, ensuring they receive individualized attention while their owners are away. This may include walks, feeding, administering medication, and providing companionship. Managing both my professional and pet sitting duties requires careful planning and time management, ensuring that every pet receives the care and attention they deserve.
